China
The severe tropical typhoon Nida, also called Tropical Storm Carina in Philippines, has recently hit the China’s Guangdong Province. The gale-force wind with up to 150 km/hr has caused heavy rain followed the tropical typhoon. This is the strongest typhoon to hit the Pearl River Delta since 1983. It was caused by a tropical depression that had developed about 1,020 km to the east-southeast of Manila, Philippines. The cyclonic system was located within a favorable environment for development of cyclone with low vertical wind shear and very warm sea surface temperatures.
